similar to: MaxConnections

Hello I would like to know if there is a keyword in sshd_config that can be used to limit the number of simultaneous connections an OpenSSH server will accept. There is a MaxConnections keyword in SSH2 but I have not found a similar keyword for OpenSSH. Thanks in advance for your response Amba Giri Symbol Technologies, San Jose P: 408-528-2721 E:agiri at sj.symbol.com Symbol. The Enterprise

It appears that openssh has inherited the dos attack that ssh is susceptible to. This has been discussed on Bugtraq (see http://securityportal.com/list-archive/bugtraq/1999/Sep/0124.html for the thread). There does not appear to be an official for ssh. Attached below is a simple, proof of concept, patch that adds a MaxConnections to sshd_config that sets the maximum number of simultaneous

Hello, I have a question about SSH with Kerberos password authentication . Do I receive any host ticket to my client machine when I do ssh connection with Kerberos password authenticaiton? If dont, why? If I login to remote machine through telnet with Kerberos Password authentication [through PAM-kerberos], then I can see the tickets with klist.

Hi all, Iäve built some functionality in a CMS where you can drag and drop small elements on the page between 2+ panes/containers/divs. Whenever a drag-drop event has occurred (onUpdate) I make a Ajax.Request to save the new layout in the CMS. The code is as follows: in an onload-function: var a = ["subcontent", "main"]; for (var i=0; id=a[i]; i++) { if ($(id)) {

Hello, This problem is regarding the configuration directive called 'LoginGraceTime'.

Hi, Compiled openssh3.1p1 by adding '-DINET6' flag to compile line to enable it to be installed on our ipv6 systems. No other code change was done to openssh. Installed it on two ipv6 systems and two ipv4 systems. Whenerer the server is an ipv4 system, ssh client seems to establish connection but it terminates immediately after printing motd message. Here is the typical failure

When I use Filezilla... the default setup will download two files in the queue at the same time. What I would notice is sometimes I could really hear my harddrive thrashing as it scanned over the disk trying to get data from both files. Now... it is quite possible that filezilla performs two logins... but it seems like it is performing the operations over the same connection. There is a

Hello, I have attempted several times to compile openssh3.1p1 that will use a random package called ANDIrand. How can I compile and get ssh to use this random number generator? I have tried the --rand-helper switch with my configure and still it does not work. I am compiling in Solaris 8, and need to then create a package that can be used on Solaris 6, Solaris 7, and Solaris 8. Thanks, Eric

Hello Darren, The major problem we are running into is that the shell (both sh and ksh) does not kill its child processes when there is no pty. The SSH patch mentioned previously at http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396 is not sufficient to kill the forced command completely.It will only kill the shell script, but not any child processes the shell script runs. The shell assumes the

Hello I have used for years offlineimap-6.2.0 dovecot-imapd 1:1.2.9 in Kubuntu 10.04 Together with a imap server of my university. Yesterday we switched to google, which I know, is not a real imap server. I have 2 problems and the first I think has to do with either an old version of offlineimap or a bad configuration file: - All folders are downloaded+ Gmail[All Mail] so doubling

I'm using asteriskathome 2.5. I'm using 2 spa3000 for dialing-out. I configured a trunk for each one with maximun channels=1 and an outbound route that includes both trunks.
